Package: kernel-package
Version: 10.033
Severity: normal


make-kpkg has checks to make sure that MAKEFLAGS
and MFLAGS do not contain -j.  They are not quite
correct.

I have MAKEFLAGS set to "kj3".  This accords with the
documentation in the make info page, which e.g. gives
the example "if you do `make -ks', then `MAKEFLAGS'
gets the value `ks'."  However, with this setting of
MAKEFLAGS, 'make-kpkg kernel_image' gives a segfault(!)
and the actual cause is extremely hard to discern.
(I had to read through make-kpkg's source.)

The manual also has a paragraph describing the exact
rules make uses for parsing MAKEFLAGS, which begins
"When `make' interprets the value of `MAKEFLAGS'";
I don't have copy/paste capability right now so I'll
let you find it yourself with that clue...

Contrariwise, the manual also mentions that GNU make
does not respect the MFLAGS variable -- it sets it
for compatibility, but if you set it yourself it will
ignore you.  So make-kpkg's check for MFLAGS is
probably pointless.

   * Bug fix: "kernel-package: check for -j in MAKEFLAGS is not quite
     correct", thanks to Nathaniel Smith. Added mush more prominent
     warnings in the documentation. The check itself is merely a
     convenience, we should warn users about the pitfalls of setting -j in
     MAKEFLAGS directly.                                      (Closes: #350665).
   * Fixed a problem build hppa kernel images.
